This site is of the Polish Children of the Holocaust Society. Our good friend, Elzbieta Ficowska, is a part of this wonderful group. We are proud of our association with such courageous people. A summary of the group is as follows: "Children of the Holocaust" is an association of persons who survived the Holocaust and who, due to their Jewish origin, had been doomed by the Nazi occupation forces to extermination and, for that reason, been imprisoned in ghettos, concentration camps, death camps or forced to conceal their identity, who were 13 years of age or less when the Second World War broke out or who were born during the war. We encourage donations to this important group.

The International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation (IRWF) is a private organization, dedicated to keep the example of Raoul Wallenberg alive all over the world, with the aim of promoting peace among nations and people, as well as developing educational projects based on concepts of solidarity, dialogue and understanding, with no distinctions. Raoul Wallenberg is the Swedish diplomat who disappeared in January 1945 after saving the lives of tens of thousands Jews condemned to certain death by the Nazis during World War II. He was captured by the Soviet troops which, in January 1945, took control of Budapest, to be never seen again. The Foundation, with branches in Buenos Aires, Caracas, Jerusalem and New York, has focused all of its efforts to honor Raoul Wallenberg, who is considered one of the greatest heroes of our times. The International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation´s purpose is to spread the message and remember the actions of the Saviours who risked their lives - and sometimes lost them - to save persecuted people during the Second World War, such as Raoul Wallenberg, Nuncio Angelo Roncalli, Aristides de Sousa Mendes, Jan Karski among many others.
